The mother of one victim, who cannnot be named for legal reasons, spoke to Chad following Whiteman’s appearance in court this week.
She said: “You always know your children have to grow up but you hope it will part of a gradual process.
“Instead my daughter was exposed to a monster who manipulated her mind and stopped at nothing to satisfy his own warped addiction to underage girls.

“We are both a lot wiser and will not be as trusting in the future.”
Whiteman, who showed promise as a figure skater and competed in four national championships, is due to be sentenced on 27th July.
